Rhea Ripley....

There was no way it was her, sure demi was muscley but I just assumed she was like a body builder or something, not a world famous athlete in WWE!! Facebook I knew that I'd find out on Facebook, so I grabbed my phone and typed in 'Demi Bennet' and sure enough, in brackets read '(rhea ripley)'. So not only was this girl my sparring partner but she was also a fucking wrestler for WWE... I'm guessing my face had changed because iz came over and asked if I was alright, "I'm fine iz. Really, I just- I just found out demi's career.." Isabelle looked at me, a confused expression on her face, I pointed at the tv, the io shirai vs rhea ripley match blaring on it. "I don't get it...." iz said looking back at me, so I showed her the Facebook page, her eyes grew wide "She followed you on Instagram! Holy shit Syd! You spar with a famous person" I huffed and stood up "sure looks like it..." "wait you're not happy about that? Why" I shrugged my shoulders "I don't know, why is she so adamant to be my friend?" I walked out of the house taking my keys with me, my instructor had dropped off my licens so I was legally allowed to drive. I took the learners plate off the front of my car and drove.

It didn't make sense, why didna WWE superstar want to be friends with the owner of a small business, a business that wasn't that good... I drove aimlessly around town for a while before stopping at the centre. I read the sign 'Fly High martial arts school' I came up with the name when I was younger, like a lot younger. I opened the door to find trav behind the counter, he had worked here since he was a teenager and he already works another job as well. " Syd are you okay you look like...shit! Syd sit down." I was fanning my face trying to ease my breathing, trav got me some water and did some breathing exercises with me until I calmed down. "Wanna tell me what that was about?" They said dropping down next to me. "I just found out that demi is a famous athlete..." "sis how I've never heard of her.." "Because she uses a different name..." trav gasped an over dramatic gasp, making me laugh "She goes by rhea ripley. Know of her" "well duh..." he started to imitate her entrance theme, trav always knew how to make me laugh.

After talking for a while trav began to host a class for the 17 year olds. I watched him coach them and he was really good, although I owned the centre trav always ran it better, I was thinking about handing the business down to him, he loves working here and they hate his second job so, if I get a new job myself I'll be giving them the business...

I went home about halfway through their class but I went straight up to the rooftop again, I sent iz a message, she was free to join if she wanted but I doubt she would, she's terrified of heights. I stargazed for a while, it was the best form of letting go from reality, I listened to music and just looked over the edge, viewing the city or looking at the stars. "Iz said you'd be here" said a voice with that all to familiar Aussie accent, I jumped a little "Demi... you scared me" I turned around and saw the 5'9 woman stood behind me, bruises forming on her arms and face, her makeup had been smudged a little and her hair was a little messy, I could see that she was still wearing her gear. "Are you okay?" I asked her looking at the bruise under her eye, "Yeah, Io really has a good kick to her" demi laughed at her own words and I lead her to a seat "So.. you're a wrestler" I said after a few seconds of awkward silence "last time I checked, yeah" she said nodding. " You like it there?" "Yeah, everyone is really good, which is why I'm here..." I looked at her, why would she wanna talk to me about work? "So, remember that video, of you, training those kids.. And how it went viral" I nodded at her where was she going with this? "Well I talked to Adam and Sonya, they called me in for a meeting, they asked me to ask you this, and only say yes if you're really willing to" my nerves grew as I had an idea in my head of what she would say "Will you... again only if you want to... come to the WWE and do an interview. They wanna see you as a wrestler" I sat in shock, should I? Trav can run the business. My dad always told me to go for my dreams, this was one of them "Are you serious?" I believed her it's just the whole situation didn't seem real. She laughed a little "Look, if you need time to think, I'll send you Sonya and Adams details, just take all the time you need." She began to stand up "wait.." I said following her, she turned back around "you wanna get home without being noticed, right?" She nodded and I grabbed her hand. "Where are we going" she asked following behind me, I took her into my apartment and handed her some makeup wipes. "Take your makeup off. I'll find some clothes for you." She nodded and I looked around my room. I threw her a dark teal hoodie, and a pair of joggers. "They're too big for me, they'll fit, bathrooms just through that door" I smiled at her and she made her way into the bathroom. She came out wearing the clothes that I gave her "these are really comfy, where did you get them?" I shook my head "I made them. My mom is a fashion designer. She taught me how to sew.. I can make wrestling gear as well" I smiled at her face "you know, bianca belair makes her own gear. You'd get along with her" she chuckled to herself. "IZ! Come here! I need your car keys" her face changed "you don't want to get noticed, I have tinted windows, no one will see you. Iz will drive your car behind us and she'll give your keys back." She reluctantly handed me her keys "c'mon have a little trust... I am your partner after all" I noticed a small pink tint flush across her face as she looked away. I handed Izzy Demi's keys and she went to the garage to get it started "well come on then..." I said grabbing her hand. I left a spare key under the plant pot, for trav, considering they always left his key at home.

I drove demi all the way home and then took Izzy back home. "So... I've been offered a job." She lit up "shut up! Where!!!" I laughed at her "WWE" she screamed a high pitched squeal that rung through my ears "you done?" She covered her mouth with her hands "sorry... OMG how exciting!!" "I don't know whether to do it though.." "WHAT! Syd this has been your dream since you were a kid, c'mon you have to!!" "What about the centre?" "You know trav will be more than happy to run it, he hates their other job, you know they do! He's wanted to run their own business for so long!!" I thought about it "okay... I'll talk to trav, and Adam, about the interview" could I really work for the WWE...
